‘A Secure Maritime Environment in Which Economic Growth can be Sustained Demands Strong Maritime Forces’
Our vision for the Indian Navy is fashioned by many factors, some of which are fairly constant and others dynamic. I will therefore paint a very broad picture of these factors from which will flow our maritime security imperatives that shape our vision for the future.

Let me begin with the assumption that this very learned and august audience is fully aware of the profound influence of aerospace power in perhaps shaping the modern world. You will also agree that the use of the third dimension has altered the conduct of warfare, at a rate and in a manner unprecedented in perhaps the last 1,000 years. Peaceful relationships between nations are certainly desirable and attainable but history and geo-strategic realities show us that some form of conflict, sometime or the other, is perhaps unavoidable; and the nature of conflict in the recent past has changed dramatically and the conduct of warfare, if ever, is itself in a state of transformation, struggling to adapt and remain relevant in the emerging set of strategic realities. Within this transformation lies the transvolation of the very way in which the Indian Air Force has to conduct its business now and in the future. If that be the case, then as the Chief of the Air Staff, where more...

I intend to cover in my talk, first and foremost, certain important aspects at the global level to get a strategic overview, touching on some regional trends and India’s security concerns, thereafter coming on to the challenges that are being faced by the Indian Army and lastly, the perspective or thrust areas of the army.

Driven by the convergence of the national and economic interests, a number

A cry for resolution more than independence.
All stake holders in Kashmir are uneasy about the sudden outbursts of azadi (freedom) reverberating in the air: the security forces are uneasy because of the mood of the people; the separatists are uneasy as they lack the platform that can keep them together for long; the regional political parties are uneasy as they appear to have been rendered unnecessary; New Delhi is

It is time to separate the wheat from the chaff. For at least a decade speculation has been rife on two major issues: India’s quest for acquiring a credible sea-based element of the country’s nuclear weapons triad; and the Indian Navy’s (IN) projected plans for acquiring on lease two nuclear-powered attack submarines (SSGN) of Russian origin. More often than not, it is the Russian mass media that has been more accurate in reporting key developments on these two more...
